Adam Jones. I always chuckle when I get a card of him. For
whatever reason, I always associate this name with Adam “Pacman” Jones,
unfortunately because of the negative connotation that comes along with it.
But this Adam Jones of the Orioles is really making a name for
himself the last few years. He already has 16 homers this year and just signed
a nice little $85.5 million dollar contract extension. The Yanks play the
Orioles so frequently, it’s actually been really impressive to watch his rise
over the last few year. His improvement has been very noticible to a fan such
as myself.
He was one of the key pieces to the Erik Bedard trade, and
the O’s showed great patience with him while he developed at the big league
level. I’m envious. It’s something I
wish could happen more in NY, but the team/executives/fanbase doesn’t show that
kind of patience. It’s win now, and that doesn’t offer youngsters the chance to
learn, grow, fail, then succeed.
I pulled this Adam Jones 2012 Archives relic out of a
blaster the other day. Pretty cool card, and certainly for trade.
I like it, but I don't think I have any Yankee relics to trade for it :/
ReplyDeleteawesome card! Interested in a Nick Swisher bat relic from 2011 Allen and Ginter for it?
ReplyDeleteZach, I'd be interested. I don't have a Swisher relic. I can't seem to find your email address though.
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice looking Jones relic card. Its funny that I keep pulling Yankees hits and you keep pulling Orioles hits! I'd be interested if your trade with Zach falls through.
ReplyDeleteHi! Sorry for not giving you my email. It's zachtruitt@yahoo.com. I would be willing to send to you first as well. Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteWith the expanding interest for new games, you can search for Mario to continue advancing and trying things out in new sorts also. What's to come is still as splendid for Mario as it was 20 years prior.
